Tamniès is a French commune with 384 inhabitants (as of January 1, 2017). It is located on a steep rock above the valley of the Grande Beune in Périgord noir in the Dordogne department .
The road to Tamniès leads up the hill in tight serpentines . The village church at the entrance to the village dates from the 13th century. A small museum with prehistoric tools and other finds was set up by the residents next to the entrance to the church . Opposite the buildings of a former monastery are still preserved.
The townscape is determined by old quarry stone houses with courtyards decorated with flowers and picturesque corners. In the square in front of the church, a hollow tree planted on July 14, 1790 commemorates the first anniversary of the French Revolution .
